RE: #4114 and post 1268

I was trolled for bringing this up on regular fr thread awhile back. But the trails keep coming back around to it. This is one of the few pages that the editor's have not gone back and added notes to to misdirect.

Goes with this: Will SARS come back - connection of Dr. Shi Zhengli and UNC
4/12/2015

Excerpt:

"Recently, Prof. Zhengli Shi and Xingyi Ge from WIV, in cooperation with researchers from University of North Carolina, Harvard Medical School, Bellinzona Institute of Microbiology and etc, examine the disease potential of a SARS-like virus, SHC014-CoV, which is currently circulating in Chinese horseshoe bat populations. Using the SARS-CoV reverse genetics system, the scientists generated and characterized a chimeric virus expressing the spike of bat coronavirus SHC014 in a mouse-adapted SARS-CoV backbone.

The results indicate that group 2b viruses encoding the SHC014 spike in a wild-type backbone can efficiently use multiple orthologs of the SARS receptor human angiotensin converting enzyme II (ACE2), replicate efficiently in primary human airway cells and achieve in vitro titers equivalent to epidemic strains of SARS-CoV. Evaluation of available SARS-based immune-therapeutic and prophylactic modalities revealed poor efficacy; both monoclonal antibody and vaccine approaches failed to neutralize and protect from infection with CoVs using the novel spike protein."

my post 1516

That was the page taken down by the CCP but saved/archived first elsewhere. WIV.

Last sentence "On the basis of these findings, they synthetically re-derived an infectious full-length SHC014 recombinant virus and demonstrate robust viral replication both in vitro and in vivo. The work suggests a potential risk of SARS-CoV re-emergence from viruses currently circulating in bat populations."

Yowch!

That post made my eyes cross. Tell me what it means as if I were a retarded child. Which I'm not.

Or am I?

p.s. Don't ever let anybody troll ya. Never give up, never surrender. Death before dishonor. Do you want to post forever?

And other inspirational clichés.
